Good for him. Jon is a friend of mine. He’s good man who does not deserve this. I think a lot of this unneeded turmoil is due to a fairly new university president who wants to flex his muscles and illustrate he’s in charge. maybe some suspensions are in order, and maybe a year of no travel for the band as a punishment, but the firing is way over the top.
Right. The OSU admin could have easily said we have a new band director on board so we are tasking him to get it turned around.
Instead they now have a nasty law suit which OSU will lose because their legal staff is totally outclassed.
